Present embodiment is characterized in that structure below.1) Eulerian angles of piezoelectric substrate 2 For Eulerian angles (0 °, -90 °≤θ≤- 70 °, 0 °).2) type and film thickness hm/ λ (%) of the metal of above-mentioned first metal film of IDT electrode 3 For any combination shown in table 10.Thereby, it is possible to minimize acoustic wave device, and it is able to suppress useless wave.Below to this into Row explanation.In addition, being illustrated in case where the first metal film is made of Pt.
Fig. 3 is the figure of the film thickness for showing the first metal film being made of Pt and the relationship of the velocity of sound.In Fig. 3, diamond shape is drawn System point shows the velocity of sound, and square graphical pointv shows the ratio relative to the benchmark velocity of sound.In addition, the so-called base in the right axle of Fig. 3 The quasi- velocity of sound is the velocity of sound in the case that the film thickness of the first metal film is 3.5%.
As shown in Figure 3, it is known that the film thickness of the first metal film becomes thicker, and the velocity of sound more becomes low speed.Here, being set by the velocity of sound For V and when frequency is set as f, V=f λ.When the frequency f of the elastic wave used in acoustic wave device is set as constant, if the The film thickness of one metal film thickens and the value of velocity of sound V becomes smaller, then the value of wavelength X also becomes smaller.Thus, it is possible to reduce the electricity of IDT electrode Pole refers to spacing.In the first embodiment, in the case where the first metal film is made of Pt, the film thickness of the first metal film is 6.5% or more, the velocity of sound becomes low speed.Therefore, electrode finger spacing can be reduced and minimizes IDT electrode, therefore can be by bullet Property wave apparatus miniaturization.
For example, the previous film thickness as the first metal film, is set as 3.5% or so film thickness sometimes.As shown in figure 3, phase Film of the ratio of the benchmark velocity of sound of the velocity of sound in the case where being 3.5% for the film thickness as the first metal film in the first metal film It is 0.88 when thickness is 6.5%.Thus, compared with previous acoustic wave device, be able to carry out 12% or more it is significantly small-sized Change.
In addition, in the first embodiment, the film thickness of the first metal film is 25% or less.Thereby, it is possible to improve productivity.
On the other hand, if the film thickness of the metal film in IDT electrode is thickened, the relative bandwidth of useless wave can become sometimes Greatly.It is explained using the first comparative example.First comparative example and first embodiment the difference lies in that piezoelectric substrate Eulerian anglesFor Eulerian angles (0 °, -10 °, 0 °).In following Fig. 4, show what the first metal film was made of Pt In the case of the first comparative example result.
Fig. 4 is the relative bandwidth for showing the film thickness and useless wave of the first metal film being made of Pt in the first comparative example The figure of relationship.In addition, useless wave shown in Fig. 4 is R wave.It is also same in the attached drawing after aftermentioned Fig. 5.
As shown in figure 4, in the first comparative example, if the film thickness of the first metal film becomes thicker than about 3.5%, useless wave Relative bandwidth become larger.
In contrast, in the first embodiment, the Eulerian angles of piezoelectric substrateIt is (0 °, -90 ° of Eulerian angles ≤ θ≤- 70 °, 0 °).Thereby, it is possible to reduce the relative bandwidth of useless wave.In following Fig. 5, by by first embodiment It is compared with the second comparative example, to be explained.Second comparative example and first embodiment the difference lies in that In the case that first metal film is made of Pt, the film thickness of the first metal film is less than 6.5%.It is shown in fig. 5 the result is that by piezoelectricity base The Eulerian angles of plateIt is set as the result in the case where Eulerian angles (0 °, -85 °, 0 °).In addition, making in following It is also compared in the case that the film thickness of first dielectric film is different.
Fig. 5 is to show the situation for keeping the film thickness of the first dielectric film different in first embodiment and the second comparative example Under, the figure of the relationship of the relative bandwidth of the film thickness of the first metal film and useless wave that is made of Pt.
In Fig. 5, the film thickness that the graphical pointv of the diamond shape of black shows the first dielectric film in the first embodiment is Result in the case where 22.5%.The graphical pointv of the square of black shows the film of the first dielectric film in the first embodiment Thickness is the result in the case where 27.5%.The graphical pointv of the triangle of black shows the first dielectric film in the first embodiment Film thickness be 32.5% in the case where result.The rectangular graphical pointv of black shows the first electricity in the first embodiment and is situated between The film thickness of plasma membrane is the result in the case where 37.5%.The circular graphical pointv of black shows the first electricity in the first embodiment The film thickness of deielectric-coating is the result in the case where 42.5%.The graphical pointv of the diamond shape of white shows the first electricity in the second comparative example The film thickness of deielectric-coating is the result in the case where 22.5%.The graphical pointv of the square of white shows in the second comparative example first The film thickness of dielectric film is the result in the case where 27.5%.The graphical pointv of the triangle of white shows in the second comparative example the The film thickness of one dielectric film is the result in the case where 32.5%.The rectangular graphical pointv of white is shown in the second comparative example The film thickness of first dielectric film is the result in the case where 37.5%.The circular graphical pointv of white is shown in the second comparative example The film thickness of first dielectric film is the result in the case where 42.5%.
As shown in Figure 5, it is known that in the second comparative example, even if keeping the film thickness of the first dielectric film different, the phase of useless wave It is also big to bandwidth.In contrast, in the first embodiment, independently with the film thickness of the first dielectric film, can effectively subtract The relative bandwidth of small useless wave.
But in the second comparative example, because the film thickness of the first metal film is thin, acoustic wave device it is significantly small-sized Change is difficult.Similarly, the miniaturization of acoustic wave device is difficult first comparative example shown in Fig. 4.For example, with as scheming The case where useless wave is repressed in the first comparative example as shown in 3, film thickness of the first metal film is 3.5% or so phase Than being able to carry out 12% or more significantly miniaturization in the first embodiment.Like this, in the first embodiment, energy It is enough to minimize acoustic wave device, and it is able to suppress useless wave.
